🚨 Final 9 hours 🚨 We’ve suspended our giving circle to meet extraordinary needs in an already impossible catastrophe. Families need help with transport + shelter or else they cannot escape north Gaza, which the occupation is flattening this minute.

We are a team of volunteers in the US and UK, led by two sisters passionate about helping our friends on the ground keep their families and neighbors alive with food, water, & shelter. We saw that…

I'm so glad you've seen it!! This mural is my Roman Empire 😍 I'm pretty sure the armour is the only way to track Vernon's allegiances and feelings about the Spanish war 👀

Still looking! I'm available for teaching in the listed areas as well as freelance research and scriptwriting. My research focuses on the reception of Greco-Roman myth and intersectionality and I can consult on appropriate media!

Why not take a minute to tell us about someone who makes Classics a nicer place.

Maybe there's someone who said just the right thing to you at just the right time.

That person deserves a bit of recognition, neh?

My first book is out now! "Asexuality in Young Adult Fiction" with Cambridge University Press. 🤍💜🖤

This has only been my dream since I was about 7 years old. Back then, I'd have never believed my debut would be academic non-fiction. 📚

Read my book for free for the next two weeks: cup.org/3CEJUrZ

There's no argument against the practice, just that portraiture is not sufficient evidence of the physical manifestation of it, i.e., the Hapsburg jaw - the portraiture plays off the visual sign as proof of legitimacy so we can't assume a true to life representation

This is so disappointing and frustrating (but does give me an extra kick up the backside to finish my monograph proposal 🥲)

I advise instead (or as well!) reading the excellent piece by @yaelrice.bsky.social and @sonjadrimmer.bsky.social for Hyperallergic hyperallergic.com/604897/how-s...

Apologies, I thought you'd replied to a different skeet! Yes, I've been looking mostly in schools, and have applied for a few in academic institutions but don't seem to have enough experience!

Dr Aimee Hinds Scott @aimeehindsscott.bsky.social · Mar 13

Thank you! I'm actively looking at pastoral but would prefer teaching - I did my PhD because I really love my subject and want to share it! That said, it's good to know that pastoral roles can offer that flexibility with research

I have, thank you! Unfortunately I've got no training below HE and given how time and energy consuming applications are, I'm happy to leave it for those with more experience. You're right though, a fabulous job for the right person!
